Quick. はやく。Let’s make a list of things in your bag. あなたの かばんの なかに あるもののリストをつくりましょう。。。and point them out in Japanese. =)

Jquery is an excellent cross-browser JavaScript library that adds flare to your HTML by simplifying client-side scripting. Just its 24kb minified version is enough for rapid web development that’s sure to change the way you code and use JavaScript.

This is the part that I thought it was just like doodling and I think the easiest set of characters you can ever learn. Right. Enjoy it while it lasts. Start COUNTING!

Sometimes all it takes is a little “HELLO”!~ Here’s a short lesson on how to greet and make introductions in Japanese:
Hajimemashite.
Watashi wa Hyde desu.
Douzo yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
はじめまして。
わたしは Hyde です。
どうぞ よろしく おねがいします。
How do you do? (literally: I am meeting you for the first time. )
I am Hyde.
Nice to meet you. (literally: Please be good to me.)
はじめまして is usually used as first phrase when introducing oneself.
どうぞ よろしく is usually used at the end of a self-introduction.
There. Smashing guitar on plexi glass not required! =)
You gotta love technology! I was able to watch (parts of) VAMPS’ (not-so) Secret Free Live via Sync Music Japan. First, I found out about it through a Facebook post, then shared the news with my friends via Twitter and Plurk. Blogged about it, too, made sure I won’t forget it by adding it to my 30Boxes Online Calendar account that emailed me hours before it started. ~

Kotoba. Words. ことば。Vocabulary.
Another challenge in learning a new language is the Vocabulary, especially in Asian languages that’s just far, far different from Western languages like English or French. At least in the Filipino language, there are Spanish words that were adopted in Tagalog unlike between Japanese and English - worlds apart.
Let’s start with the basics shall we? Time for some brain cells connectivity.~

Hello Pilipinas and congratulations, we have ourselves a new president! We’re excited to know more about our new leader President Benigno Simeon “Noynoy” Cojuangco Aquino III from his goals, plans, dreams, plans of action, political stand, beliefs, likes, dislikes and yes, favorite food!
What’s comfort food to you?
Tropical Hut hamburger, dimsum from Hap Chan and Kowloon, Ma Mon Luk, pizza from D’Mark’s.
